Fragment of a Painted Panel

From the Getty Museum record

Fragment of a painted panel depicting a femal figure hastening swiftly to the right, with her right thigh raised. Preserved are the dark-haired head, upper torso and arms of a woman wearing a short-sleeved, short-skirted yellow garment. She holds a large red vase by the handles in front of her. The scene may illustrate one of the women who attempted to extinguish the funerary pyre of Herakles, or one of the Danaids, the daughters of Danaus, who were condemned to perpetually fill a leaking jar with water in Hades.
